Note: I am not making fun of certain characters that leads to a pointless thread filled with insults
I would like to point out that this thread is not a comparison of power. I know that any form of Naruto can fodderize Sakura.
The thread focuses solely on why Sakura is a better character than Naruto and how she is better written.
A lot of Naruto fanboys think that Naruto is the underdog of the story. That they believe Naruto earned everything he got and worked hard for them
However, they do not realize how wrong they are
I am going to use Sakura to exemplify why Naruto is not a very good character.
The Underdog Mentality
This is just part one, theres a lot more that can be discussed. Idk if I want to continue

The Underdog Mentality
Sakura is the true underdog of this series, not Naruto
She wasnt born in a clan, therefore shes not special compared to Naruto who was born in the Uzumaki clan and whose Dad is the 4th Hokage
A lot of people say Naruto is a relatable character, but think, are most of us born in a rich family background. Do most of us have important parents who achieved so many things in life and are recognized by a lot of people
So in a way, Sakura is a more relatable character than Naruto because she came from a normal background. She may have been a popular person, but that doesnt take away the insecurities she has by being normal compared to Naruto
This is a huge problem because for a main character of a shonen manga to be very successfully, a relatability factor is necessary. Naruto lost that in Part 2 when Kishi introduced all that destiny and prophecy crap
Another issue is power
This is more of Kishi's fault because he didnt properly develop Sakura even though shes a main character
Hence why for most of part one, Sakura was useless in battle
However, this just further proves my point. Sakura felt helpless. She couldnt do anything because she was not special like Naruto who has Uzumaki genes, Ashura's chakra, and Kurama
Even when the odds were against her and even though she couldnt do anything substantial to change the situation, she never gave up
Its different in Naruto's case because almost everytime he was backed up in a corner, plot and Kurama had to save him
On the other hand, even though Sakura trained so hard under Tsunade and stated she was at Naruto and Sasuke's level
Naruto still got free powerups
Hence, why Sakura can never achieve the same success as Naruto has because she was not born to be great.
Her insecurities stem from the fact that she feels helpless whenever Naruto is in the scene because what she can do can never surpass what Naruto can do
Which is why, she is a more of an underdog than Naruto
